      christopher c. m God this is AWFUL! The CGI is on par with the WORST Asylum movie. The characters range from boring to generic asshole. The pacing is nonexisted. The dumbest part of the movie is that it's called "Showdown at Area 51" but it happens in Missouri which is over 1,500 miles away from Area 51! So the title has nothing to do with the plot. It would be like if "Night at the Museum: Battle for the Smithsonian" took place Louvre! The aliens don't look remotely alien. Why? No money left over after all the "brilliant" "Oscar" worthy CGI? Don't waste your time. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Superman Is The Best S Based on a true story from tommorow they made this to tell us that the raid happens because their from the future Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/19/19 Full Review Audience Member This movie is like watching Stargate or something. Interesting twist during the movie, but the poor acting and the poor costume is a laugh. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member More like <i>Slowdown at Area 51.</i> This is the kind of movie where people are constantly urging "Let's go, we have to hurry!" and then creep along like they're in a haunted house. Not even Farscape's Gigi Edgley can salvage anything ater showing up 1/3 in with her sorely underwritten part. Weak in all respects. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Do not waste your life on it? Watch film if you are sick, extremely bored, you have no money or books, and your music player has no battery. (like I DID!) Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member Not bad for a sci-fi origanal made for tv film. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
